In most cases, when you have been injured on the job, the only way you can recover compensation from your employer will be through the workers’ compensation system. Anyone who collects workers’ compensation in Texas for their workplace injury of illness is prohibited from filing a standard lawsuit for related damages because the law says that a workers’ compensation claim is an “exclusive remedy” for any such injury or illness.

Nearly everyone knows that, if you have experienced a personal injury accident caused by someone else’s negligence, you may be entitled to compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering through a personal injury claim in Texas.
